    Advertisers listen to what viewers think. Just ask Air America.

  3. Who decides what's true? Somebody says that the administration made up a story about a video being responsible for Benghazi. Is that true? Depends on your politics, now doesn't it. I know this. If I want factual news and/or educated opinion I'll watch Brett Baier. If I want opinion, biased to comically insane, I'll watch everyone else, including FOX or otherwise. There is no news at all at MSNBC. Some at CNN. Little to nothing at the networks. Bullshit reigns supreme 90% of the time.

    On top of this nearly 25% of the "news" on cable and network channels are paid placements for advertisers. Do you think that 10 minute segment on CNN about the glory of Tupperware is on the air because the staff members enjoy using it?

    I find it amusing that the more you folks rail against Fox news, the higher the ratings seem to go. Keep paying the bills of the network you loathe. There's no finer sense of irony.
